PLXND1-mediated calcium dyshomeostasis impairs endocardial endothelial autophagy in atrial fibrillation

Left atrial appendage (LAA) thrombus detachment resulting in intracranial embolism is a major complication of atrial fibrillation (AF). Endocardial endothelial cell (EEC) injury leads to thrombosis, whereas autophagy protects against EEC dysfunction. However, the role and underlying mechanisms of au...
